Russian mechanics inspect the Ukrainian M1150 demining vehicle. The video shows a Ukrainian M1150 mine clearance vehicle made in America. The M1150 was hit by a drone in the weak spot of the surveillance camera, the crew lost visibility and drove into a minefield in the Berdychi area. It was difficult to evacuate the M1150 due to its heavy weight, it reaches 75 tons; several vehicles were used for evacuation. Due to its heavy weight, it is better to use the machine on dry ground. The M1150 mine clearing vehicle was developed in 2009 on the basis of the M1A1 Abrams tank and is considered the best in the US Army for work on the front line. The M1150 has good armor with dynamic protection and is designed for making passages in minefields. The M1150 is equipped with a blade mine sweeper that plows the ground, lifting mines to the surface and throwing them aside. The trawl can be dropped without leaving the car; it is mounted on a hydraulic “High Lift Adapter”. Also, instead of a trawl, the “adapter” provides for the installation of a bulldozer bucket, after which the machine can be used as a bulldozer. The machine has signal flags that are stuck into the ground by two pneumatic devices, indicating the demining area. In the rear compartment of the vehicle there are MK22 Mod 4 rockets with charges attached to them, which are 107-meter fabric “sleeves” equipped with a detonation cable and filled with explosives. The projectile is fired from the M58A3 launcher at a length of 100 meters; after detonation, an area up to 8 meters wide is cleared. The M1150 mine clearing vehicle is armed with a 12.7 mm machine gun, has a crew of 2 people, and the estimated cost of the M1150 is about $14 million.

Footage of exercises of the missile division of the Russian Baltic Fleet in the Kaliningrad region. The video shows the firing of the Russian coastal missile system "Bal" with an Kh-35 anti-ship missile. The "Bal" missile system was put into service in 2008, the flight range of the modernized missiles of the "Bal" complex is about 500 kilometers, the model of the missiles is not reported. The probability of hitting a target at a range of up to 120 km is about 92%.
Russian T-90M Proryv tanks were equipped with factory canopies to protect against drones, this has not yet been officially announced. The first T-90M Proryv tanks were spotted at one of the training grounds, where the gunner-operator of one of the combat vehicles told his impressions of the tank. A protective canopy from the drone covers the top of the entire tank turret, and it also has hatches for loading the crew. The protection looks pretty good and is strikingly different from the homemade structures that the crews themselves previously installed on tanks. Interview with the tank gunner-operator at the end of the video.
Footage of the Russian crew of the 220-mm Uragan MLRS. The 9K57 Uragan MLRS was put into service in 1975; this installation, as seen in the video, also has partial protection against drones. The firing range of the Uragan MLRS is up to 35 km, the installation is located on the ZIL-135LM chassis. Currently, the 9K57 Uragan MLRS is in service with the Russian army, there are 200 units in service and 700 units in storage. The Uragan MLRS is also used by the Kazakh, Belarusian, Ukrainian and other armies; in total, 9 countries use them.
The link above has 200km altitude intercept but the link below has 250km altitude intercept.Russia to deploy two variants of S-500 missile defense system to Ukraine very soon:
What is the S-500 system that the Russian Defense Minister announced
would enter service in the army
The system can detect targets at a distance of 800 km. Its strike range is 600 km at an altitude of up to 250 km
It shot down .05 sq German drone. the newer missile has speed of 1700 meter/sec. it is not so much top speed that important but how fast it accelerate to those speeds as low rcs targets will be much nearer and no one can empty 12 missiles simultaneously on 12 different targets. Air defence is much more difficult against complex attack. system reliability 24/7 is utmost important.
For the first time, the Russian Pantsir S1M air defense system intercepts a drone
with almost zero radar cross-section
The developers of the Russian kamikaze FPV drone "Gadfly" showed the communication repeater they created for drones. Communication relay for FPV drones allows you to significantly increase the operating range of FPV drones, bringing it to 30 km and above. The repeater has a 33-meter cable and a transmitter that allows you to work from a shelter; it has a signal conversion system that allows you to work with a wide range of ground-based equipment. Production is still on a small scale, about 10 pieces per day. Details in the video.
Russian developers of the kamikaze drone "Scalpel" described how they continue to improve the drone. Previously, we provided technical information about the Scalpel drone in the link to the video in the comments to the video. The "Scalpel" drone is a cheap analogue of the Russian kamikaze drone "Lancet", despite the fact that the drone is still being finalized, it is already being supplied to Russian troops to a limited extent. The drone's flight range is currently up to 40 km.
Two Tu-95ms strategic missile carriers of Russian long-range aviation performed a scheduled flight in the airspace over the neutral waters of the Bering Sea. The flight duration was more than 11 hours; the Tu-95MS strategic missile carriers were accompanied by Russian Su-30SM 4++ generation fighters. Off the west coast of Alaska, Russian Tu-95MS missile carriers were accompanied by F-16C fighters from the 18th Fighter Interceptor Squadron from Eielson Air Force Base in Alaska.
Footage of the Russian military vehicle ARS-14KM spraying liquid. The ARS-14KM vehicle entered service with the Russian troops in 2017 and is designed for degassing, decontamination and disinfection of military equipment, terrain, transporting water and solutions, creating aerosol curtains and extinguishing fires. ARS-14KM is also used for washing personnel; a special tent is set up for this. The ARS-14KM station is located on the chassis of a KamAZ 43114 truck and has two pumps, the main pump operates from the vehicle’s driveshaft, the second is used as a spare.
The machine is equipped with two tanks with a capacity of 2700 and 1400 liters. The consumption rate of the working solution when degassing the area is about one liter per square meter of area, full characteristics are on the screen. The speed of the truck during processing is about 5 km/h. The jet range for fire extinguishing is about 30 meters. The ARS-14KM station heats 2500 liters of water to 60 degrees per hour. The station is ready for operation in about 6 minutes. The crew of the ARS-14KM station vehicle is three people.
